https://bamfstyle.com/2019/08/02/elvis-blue-hawaii-red/ I found this image of Elvis and I am wondering if it is public domain. It is from 1961 for Blue Hawaii as a promotional photo, and I cannot find this photo in any other place. If it is Public Domain, then I think it would be great to use as a lead Wcamp9 (talk) 19:50, 25 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Let me ask you this my friend: why do you keep insisting in formally requesting a change to an issue that will never be corrected by this best selling listing directory? Just about all other websites and reputed knowledgeable sources will attest to the fact that Presley is the best selling solo act in music history with over a billion records sold. why keep persisting.? This best selling listing directory has been discredited by many for this, and many other issues. It's not even being used as a point of reference by any respectable news organization, books of reference such as the Guinness book of records, the world almanac or by any renown musical historical pundits. Moreover you must be respectful to the editors who regardless of the facts will keep stating (without evidence) that his sales are "inflated". Especially after inflating Michael Jackson's claimed sales which were at 350 million to 500 million based on total available certifications and putting Jackson ahead of Presley in this listing directory. There is no sense in disputing the lack of validity of this best selling list. Have a nice day !! Victor0327 (talk) 19:44, 18 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
